I have been using the Radeon LE for the past 2 weeks and have had absolutely no problems.

Last night I was messing around with my Swiftech hsf and when I put my system back together I have had nothing but video problems since. 3dmark2001 won't run (previously I had gotten a 3377), Tribes2 can't even handle the intro (flawless performance before that).

I have overclocked but nothing past 180. I've tried reinstalling the drivers but nothing works.

My system: T-bird 1.33 @ 1.53, 256megs crucial, Iwill KK266, swiftech462A.

Please help!

Run it at the default clock speed, and see if it works. If it doesn't, then you've got problems . . .

if you were messing with the heatsink, i would have to think that you are no longer getting good contact between the heatsink and cpu. this could cause heat problems, which in turn could cause video problems since the cpu is under more load when playing games.
